Patriot to defend hub providing aid to Ukraine

German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius said that the international hub in Poland, through which a significant part of external support for Ukraine passes, will be protected by two Patriot batteries.

According to Censor.NET, citing Rmf24, Pistorius said this after a meeting with Polish Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of National Defense Wladyslaw Kosiniak-Kamysz.

"Ukraine's need for support from the West will not diminish, so the role of the logistics hub in Rzeszow remains key. Two German Patriot batteries will defend this area," Pistorius said.

He also said that this mission is designed for six months, and noted that it cannot be permanent due to the limitations of equipment and personnel.
